Who are The Zimmers?

The Zimmers is a British rock band with probably the oldest members in the world. The lead singer, Alf, is 90. The oldest member, Buster, is 100. Their name, zimmer, originates from what the British call a walker. Impressive? Wait til you hear what they have done. Words alone cannot do them justice, watch their music video attached below and you will see what I mean.

The intention as described by the creator of the group, Tim Samuels, is "... about old people sticking it back to the society that has cast them aside". In many ways, The Zimmers is achieving in the music world what The Elders Tribune hope to accomplish in literature. It is very inspiring to know of their success.
